I played the original Honkai Impact 3rd until chapter 34, and now Genshin. However, I couldn't get into another HoYo game, they are just too formulaic at times. Star Rail seems to have an interesting premise but it might be not for me. ZZZ on the other hand seems cooler. I'm glad it's coming to consoles.

Surprised the port is taking so long. Tried on PC but they launched without an invert Y so I shelved after 20 mins. They’ve since patched it in but I can’t be arsed

I thought we now know it's coming to PS5.

Probably yes, but still no oficial anouncement. The only link to playstation so far was in this teaser when we can see a Plastation logo in the skateboard. Maybe they saving the anouncement to some Sony showcase.

The Honkai Star Rail looks good, but I can't do the gocha games. So many systems and junk items to funnel you to using the gocha mechanic. I wish gocha stuff wasn't so profitable because HoYo games are fun, but the gocha stuff ruins it for me.

Game is now available to download on PS5.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Servers won't be up for another 3 hours ish so you have some time to download and install

Once they decide to make actual game instead of mobile game on console then I will be interested to give it a try.

Sony should have spent 3B in a company like "My Hole".

1. That's sus.
2. That's not very nice to say.
3. "Myhole" is saving the world.

Genshin is a legit good game, I expect no less from this one too.

Sony having all of them is probably one of the biggest reason why Playstation consoles do so well in asian countries, even Japan though.
It's clearly working for them.

I tried Honkai on PC as I prefer turn based combat but lack of a local server and the slot machine mechanics eventually turned me off. Just give me a complete game where I can choose what I want to play.

Be arsed, fellow invert Y junkie!

Hey, Honkai isn't a bad game per say but compared to any other turn-based RPG out there it's pretty simplistic. You get more bang for your buck playing anything else in the market like Sea of Stars, Octopath Traveler, Baldur's Gate 3.

I played it with zero bucks so the bang for your buck is infinite compared to the rest!
